The utter stench of corruption 20:13 - Jan 31 with 815 viewsbluelagos

The Sky news reporting on Mandleson whose partner takes money from Epstein and then Epstein lobbies for a change of govt. policy on banker bonuses. Mandelson seemingly trying to get changes to the govt policy.

Really makes you wonder just how deceitful our politics is. It really feeds the desire to get shot of the lot of them.

Can only see yet more drift to the extremes in UK politics.

Oh, and that nonce Andrew and Fergie in hock to him, wtaf

This should be a much larger story than it is. It’s odd how some news goes viral and other seriously important stuff that gets to the heart of what’s wrong with things gets less attention (see also Sudan for a very different type of example).

When it comes to much that we rarely get to hear about, I am always reminded of the words of George Orwell in what was intended to be the preface to Animal Farm.

"Unpopular ideas can be silenced, and inconvenient facts kept dark, without the need for any official ban. Anyone who has lived long in a foreign country will know of instances of sensational items of news—things which on their own merits would get the big headlines—being kept right out of the British press, not because the Government intervened but because of a general tacit agreement that ‘it wouldn’t do’ to mention that particular fact. So far as the daily newspapers go, this is easy to understand. The British press is extremely centralised, and most of it is owned by wealthy men who have every motive to be dishonest on certain important topics. But the same kind of veiled censorship also operates in books and periodicals, as well as in plays, films and radio. At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed that all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to say this, that or the other, but it is ‘not done’ to say it, just as in mid-Victorian times it was ‘not done’ to mention trousers in the presence of a lady. Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals."

Even the crown princess of Norway is implicated in the latest files. A pretty disturbing email she sent to Epstein, about her son. I wonder how far this filthy net will eventually reach.

Mandelson has always been a freeloader. He loves the lifestyle but doesn't have the same wealth as those he likes to mix with.

After all, one of his early resignations followed an undisclosed loan from Geoffrey Robinson, the wealthy Labour minister.

Probably because the people who can control the news flow were also on the island / are on the payroll 😂

I’ve never really had a strong opinion on the royals, but after this, they chose to try and cover up Andrew and Fergie’s doings to keep up appearances, good PR and not jeopardise their wealth.

I know it was always deemed “tinfoil hat” territory but it now feels like we are just scratching the surface on this, it’s already messed up and we still have more dominoes left to topple.

Not to mention the fact that cutting him loose from The Firm seems to have stopped any links between him and the Royal Family.

He was Prince Andrew at the time that the offences were committed, and when Liz paid off Giuffre, and no amount of 'Plain Old Andrew-ing' him will or should change that.

You can see how heavily lawyered all of the BBC's articles are, but I can't see how, say, 'disgraced former Royal' could be any way inaccurate or libellous.

These days, so many people seem to conflate/confuse the *actual* media with social media.

A story gets reported, and whether it goes viral or not is entirely down to us, the people. More often than not, the people who ensure these things go viral are the ones with a vested interest.

It's why crimes committed by immigrants seem so prevalent.

Crime by an immigrant is reported - shared widely by 'those people' and outrage is manufactured - people think it's happening more than it actually is - the media spots a huge spike in viewership/readership figures and makes sure it reports on those crimes in future - 'those people' share it even more...

It's a vicious cycle and we feed it.

The number of times I see people asking on social media, 'why is this story not being reported by the MSM?' and I stick it into Google to find that pretty much every part of the MSM has reported on it. What they really mean, is 'I don't read the MSM, but why have my people on Twitter not shared it?'

What I don’t is that Epstein ran what was he ran a trafficking and child prostitution ring with presumably quite a few clients, and one of the main protagonists in alive and in jail.

How come not a single person involved has been prosecuted, while Maxwell has been sent to a more comfortable prison, surely all the names are out there with evidence ?

Of course they are and being protected. Anyone who thinks the DOJ hasn't spent the last 6 weeks checking these documents and removing anything they felt was 'not public interest' is very naive

One of the problems of this is that it will feed support for Reform who are seen as being somehow different.

However, in addition to there being plenty of evidence of corruption within Reform, they are increasingly being made up of the very same lot of MPs who were in the governments involved.
